The invention relates to a method for transporting packaging containers for liquid filling material from a filling machine. In order to avoid contamination of machine parts by packaging containers not perfectly closed and to enable the automated sorting out of defective packaging containers, a method comprising the following steps is specified: conveying the packaging containers (19) in a conveying direction (25) in cycles by means of a carrying element (17, 18) of at least one first conveying means, lifting the packaging containers (19) during the standstill of the first conveying means, transferring the packaging containers (19) to at least one second conveying means (39), and conveying the packaging containers (19) in the transport plane in one of two transport directions (45, 54) of each second conveying means (39) extending opposite each other, which transport directions extend perpendicularly to the conveying direction (25) of each first conveying means. The invention further relates to a device for transporting packaging containers (19). |
